Topological sorting

L ← Empty list that will contain the sorted elements
S ← Set of all nodes with no incoming edges
while S is non-empty do
remove a node n from S
add n to tail of L
for each node m with an edge e from n to m do
remove edge e from the graph
if m has no other incoming edges then
insert m into S
if graph has edges then
return error (graph has at least one cycle)
else
return L (a topologically sorted order)

L ← Empty list that will contain the sorted nodes
while there are unmarked nodes do
select an unmarked node n
visit(n)

function visit(node n)
if n has a temporary mark then stop (not a DAG)
if n is not marked (i.e. has not been visited yet) then
mark n temporarily
for each node m with an edge from n to m do
visit(m)
mark n permanently
unmark n temporarily
add n to head of L
